1 of 1 people found the following review helpful Wonderful!, Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Rokinon 8mm F2.8 Ultra-Wide Fisheye Lens for Sony E-mount and Sony NEX Cameras 28FE8MBK-SE Black (Electronics) I had been considering adding an ultra-wide zoom lens to my collection of lenses and had narrowed it down to a couple of them. I had also been watching images taken with, and read reviews of, Samyang 8mm f/3.5 Fisheye (and its many brands) for Sony A-mount. That got me interested in that lens. Since I own two interchangeable cameras (Sony SLT-A55 and Sony NEX-3), and often use all of my A-mount lenses on the NEX (E-mount), I was pretty much getting set on the Fisheye. And last month, before I choose to dive-in, I came across Samyang's announcement for a revised Fisheye lens designed exclusively for Sony E-mount: 8mm f/2.8. The compact design was key to my decision. I chose to gave up the flexibility of using the lens between the two cameras, for portability. Luckily, discovered a 2-hour "lightning sale" on Amazon and picked Rokinon branded version moments before the sale ended, saving at least $100 off on-going prices.

They produce quality lenses for a fraction of the price of more well-known ones. 85/1.4 for $300? 35/1.4 for $500? Awesome! So I was stoked when they announced that they'd release an updated fish-eye lens for the E-mount.Now that I have the lens in my hands, I can say that it's pretty pretty good. It's slightly shorter than the 18-55 E-mount kit lens. I got the black version and it looks quite nice with a red ring. I'm not a technical person but from what I've seen so far, it's quite sharp even wide open at f/2.8. I posted a few samples so you can see the kind of fish-eye effect you'll get with this 8mm lens. I've never had a fish-eye lens before, so I can't really compare it to others. But I think it's a nice piece of glass for the price. It might be a niche lens, but the results can be quite unique and satisfying. |
